## What is Ninjutsu Akban?

Ninjutsu in common conception refers to martial arts, practices, and techniques descended from the mythical ninja. It seems to have developed as a response to the dominant samurai class between the 13th and 16th centuries in the provinces of Iga and Kōka, Shiga, Japan.

Ninjutsu encompasses techniques from several centuries-old Japanese martial arts schools. The Ninjutsu program includes a wide variety of techniques, ranging from unarmed movements to an extensive collection of kata with weapons.

This application presents hundreds of techniques, including strikes (punches, kicks, and headbutts), throws and chokes, defenses against holds (chest, face, back), defenses against grappling maneuvers (wrist or clothing grabs), as well as evasions.
Each technique is presented from different angles, including a multi-view option, slow-motion, and professionally shot close-ups combined with a user-friendly interface.

Various techniques are demonstrated by Yossi Sheriff, a 5th dan level Ninjutsu expert. He has been practicing this discipline for over thirty-five years and teaching it for twenty years.

### 5/5 — Problem

*2024-12-20, version 3.52*

I paid for access to everything and I only have access to postures and movements, is there any way to fix this?

### 1/5 — It’s super buggy

*2024-11-19*

I purchased the app. However only Stances/Movements loads. Sometimes the other categories show briefly, and if I am quick sometimes I can click them. 
But overall not the experience I’d hoped for from the Akban app.

### 5/5 — Great

*2020-07-04*

Good

### 2/5 — General problems

*2019-10-27, version 2.0*

Non- membership is very skimping on available videos. Just watching videos isn’t quite enough, there needs to be step by step instructions or something. Even some of the slo-mo vids are difficult to catch up with.

### 2/5 — Poor

*2018-07-27, version 2.0*

No explanation of the techniques very poor. Which is a shame as Sherriff is a master

### 1/5 — I bought all of the original indivdual apps fl

*2017-10-10*

for these lessons is there anyway i can get this app upgraded without repaying because the old apps arent working with the current OS

### 3/5 — Monthly subscription

*2016-05-01, version 2.0*

Great app with lots of information but doesn't explain that it's a monthly subscription of £3.99.

### 5/5 — More styles

*2015-05-05, version 1.0*

I love it I've used the app and it helps me a lot. Next time when making a new app, can you do Eskrima stick fighting please? I want to see what it will be like from different angles with the stick.

### 4/5 — Very good for interested novice

*2015-02-27*

Like the app, great on showing the views at different angles. My favorite is the slow down mode that you can see the actual movements and practice to get the correct motion. Would be nice to see an update in the future.
